Joco Posted February 24, 2020 Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 In Jocotepec, if you want faster internet than Telmex, I signed up for Unet. It is fiber optic and has up to 50MB. I bought the 30MB plan for $499 which will be three times faster than what I have now. If I like it I will buy the 50MB. https://www.unet-telecom.com/index.php/poblaciones/la-barca-jalisco-3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utilitus Posted February 24, 2020 Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 Any idea where Unet's Joco office, if any, is hidden? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisR Posted February 24, 2020 Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 Joco, I get "Your IP was blocked by the server firewall." Do they have a public-facing web site, or phone number? Thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joco Posted February 24, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 The building had been remodeled. It is Matamoros sur 10. https://goo.gl/maps/Zx7EJLVPiv9YzLZq7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EldonNova Posted February 24, 2020 Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 Do they come further east than Joco? I hope you post further as to it's reliability. Have they given you a time-frame as to when it will be installed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedros Posted February 24, 2020 Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 I know a guy in El Chante that got it recently. So far so good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Habacht Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 Installation is FREE....time frame is 3-7 days and installation is clean and professional. They do not offer a telephone but the internet has been very reliable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeborahM Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 I signed up last month, in Las Fuentes...so far so good! My internet speed is five times what it was with TelMex, for the same price. Currently they have a special promotion..pay in advance, get twelve months for the price of nine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One person on another board said she constantly gets 100MB up and down. The highest package offered is 50MB so she is getting more than she paid for. Another is having problems getting the speed he ordered but it is still faster than Telmex. He said the company is excellent at responding and trying to fix problems. I won't have mine installed for a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utilitus Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 Joco, Thanks - it's great that some local institution has a good reputation, so far... With telecom services (though not so much fiber), location can be crucial - if Las Fuentes had good net service a couple of years ago, I might have bought there.

I definitely don't get 100 up and down. The customer who gets that works online and is paying for the highest priced package. However, I pay for the lowest cost package, and consistently get 30-plus up and down. Just to compare, my final day with TelMex, I was getting 5.14 up and point 68 down. I am VERY happy with UNET so far. My Amazon Firestick now works smoothly, no buffering at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apolanco Posted April 26, 2020 Report Share Posted April 26, 2020 Anyone aware whether this service is available in San Juan Cosala? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southernguy Posted April 26, 2020 Report Share Posted April 26, 2020 No, not available in San Juan, they cover Joco and come out as far as Las Fuentes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not completely up to speed on their delivery method but my understanding is it’s equivalent to “wireless fiber” which would require transmitters within reasonable proximity to the point of service. Wonder is a sufficient number of customers would justify the capital upgrade needed to establish service in SJC. Will inquire with them tomorrow and post their reply.

Mostlylost Posted April 26, 2020 Report Share Posted April 26, 2020 Op said their service is fiber optic. Do they offer both fiber and over air? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Posted April 26, 2020 Report Share Posted April 26, 2020 It's fiber optic until the modem then it can be wired or wireless to your computer. I have friends who live in the development just east of Las Fuentes called Rancho Alegre. Unet won't go in there; iLox doesn't go that far; Telmex sucks and so does Telcel. They are, however, in a beautiful location with a spectacular view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johanson Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 My Telmex line has been very reliable since I first got it in 1997. I said is was Then last Thursday night an old and abandoned telephone pole broke about ten feet from the top and toppled over until it was stopped by the telephone and the IZZI cable lines. The lines held up the broken end of the pole, but sadly both my Telmex and cable internet went down. I am now using my iPhone as a hot spot and have been doing so since Friday morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOUIS001 Posted June 8, 2020 Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 Will the service be available in Chantepec? The address is only a little ahead of Las Fuentes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
